Matrix Birth Reimprinting
In March 2018 I had the pleasure of flying to the Gold Coast Australia to train in ‘Matrix Birth Reimprinting & Matrix Life Purpose’ with their creator, Sharon King. This qualification enables me to work with Birth Traumas and pre-conscious memories. As a neonatal nurse, midwife, mother, Matrix Reimprinting and Meta-Health practitioner, I have been following Sharon's work for some years. I loved her book ‘Heal Your Birth, Heal Your Life’ and consider it compulsory reading for everyone who has been born, given birth, and for all who work with clients and child birth. Attending this training has enabled me to go deeper in my understanding of the impact of our birth on our life.
Through going back to my birth, I learnt why I have such a deep passion for keeping babies with their mothers (and fathers) and skin to skin nurturing. I was born in the era when newborn babies were placed in a nursery and taken out to their mothers for feeding 4 hourly. Guided gently and lovingly by a colleague on my Matrix Birth Reimprinting training, I went back to my newly born self. Not to become her, but to be with her. She was in her cot, crying. Separated from her mother as was every other baby in that nursery room. Being able to say and do what she wanted is / was life changing for her and me. We wrapped her gently in a soft pink blanket - her chosen colour for safety. We asked her what she needed. Together, we created the 3 things she wanted - her angel to come and watch over her, her daddy to take her to her mummy and put her back on skin to skin. This was profound for her, but she wanted more. She wanted all the other babies daddies to take them to their mummies too, to be placed on skin to skin, nurtured with no separation.
On my visits back to that nursery room, multiple times since, it was always empty. Several days later I went back into the ‘matrix’ and changed that room, to be a place for nurturing babies on their mothers and fathers. Soft lighting and gentle music now fills that room. A place of comfort with lazy boy chairs. A place for babies, mothers, fathers and families where only love and connection exists.
This is the ability we have with Matrix Birth Reimprinting for any birth experience.
Babies are conscious beings from the moment of conception and they remember their birth and time in utero (Chamberlain, 2013). Every thought, feeling and emotion is recorded (King, 2018). There are many research studies and countless birth reimprinting stories that show us this is repeatedly true.
Our birth story makes a difference to us. It sets the stage for our experiences in life, how our brain develops, how we organise ourselves and how we relate to our world.
I reach out to you and ask:
Is your experience of birth affecting your life? …or the life of your children?
Were you or your little one fearful or anxious during pregnancy and birth?
Did you experience a traumatic event during your time in utero or when pregnant or during birth
Did you have a fast birth?
Were you induced, born by caesarean, forceps, ventouse, stuck, or had your cord tightly around your neck during your birth?
Did you or your children experience separation?
Are you aware, that the health concerns / relationship issues you are experiencing during your life may relate to your birth?
If any of these questions, or many others I have not asked, bring up memories or trigger you in any way, remember, we (and our parents and those involved in our birth) were doing the best we could with the knowledge and understanding we had at that time (King, 2018).
It is how we perceive our experiences in life that is relevant for us. And our reality will likely differ from others perception even if they were there at that time. We also all come into this world to learn through our experiences. Be open to the possibility that you can reconnect with your little self and your parents through Matrix Birth Reimprinting, to have the perfect birth and bonding experience for you and to take the learnings and move forward in your life.
With loving, gentle guidance you can also recreate the birth you wanted for your children and if you are pregnant, future imprint the birth you want for your baby. What might this change in your and their life?
Enabling gentle loving birth and healing birth trauma is the foundation and the way forward for us all. At the time we were actually in utero and born, or through Matrix Birth Reimprinting. It matters how we are born (Bergman, 2016).
It is never too late to have the birth of your choice.
